Cerith Gardiner on a Nun (Age 67) Who Is a World Taekwondo Champion

"A sister from Singapore, who weighs less than 110 pounds, proclaims: 'I have always been petite and small-framed. If I can run and kick, I don’t have to carry a weapon to defend myself.'. . .

"While she joined the Franciscan Missionaries of the Divine Motherhood 43-years-ago, she still practices her art, and to an impressive level."

In a recent commentary, writer Cerith Gardiner reflected on Sister Linda Sim's participation in Taekwondo (with its motto, "peace is more precious than triumph") and its role in her ministry.
